A ring that turns you invisible...

Lord of The Rings reference, maybe?

Comment by LilRichard

Aldebarann has it right: this is an LOTR reference. The invisibility, 10% of max. health cost (as per losing one's self to the power of the ring), and the name allude to the ring of power. The equal allocation of stats is also a running LOTR theme of Blizzard's (remember The 1 Ring, The 2 Ring and The 5 Ring? - I'm sure I've missed a few.)

Keep the ring for your questing past reaching level cap - remember, we won't be able to fly in Draenor, and it should save some time while questing!

Edit: its item level (and lack of gem slots) looks like it might not be suitable for challenge modes, but we'll see if its on-use effect shows any different. True, invisibility potions last longer, and are a great source of income for herbalists/alchemists, but 10 seconds might be enough for the new dungeons. You could just use the potions, and make things easier all around.Also, downvoted? I really don't understand this commenting system at all

Gorum can be found in a cave south-east of Gul'Var in Shadowmoon Valley.

Drops off a rare pale orc who looks very similar to Gollum, even has a similar name, Gorum I think it was.

you can only delete this item by throwing it into the fires of the blackrock mountain.

An agility ring with spirit -- for all you wannabe healers in the rogue and hunter community...

I believe a better reference to the item would be the Bloodknife ring used by assassins in the Wheel of Time series. It would allow them to blend in with shadows at the cost of their life over time. The ring was shaped like a vine with thorns.

It felt weird disenchanting this, as if the act itself would unleash something terrible... Or the fact that I wish I kept it now after learning how useful the ghetto Vanish really could be :P

Because calling it "The Thirty-Seven Ring" wouldn't work very well if it dropped as an epic with +41 in everything.

Comment by Cassidy13

Works absolutely fine in challenge modes as a perfect alternative for invisibility potions.

-> Everybody equip ring 30 seconds before you want to skip the mobs. Run through, do a countdown and the whole group clicks on the ring at the same time. -> Everybody drops combat and can continue to use dps potions instead of having a 10 min cooldown.

Also, 100% drop chance. Worth to get and keep this item.

Edit: I recommend NOT to use this ring like you use the potion. Because it doesn't last that long. Instead, as described, you let the tank pull everything you want to skip and use the ring at your desired location in combat!

Edit2: Example of use: Iron Docks. Kill trash up to the second boss. Equip ring. Kill boss. Mount up. Run through all the trash up to the third boss. Use ring. Out of combat. Voilà - you can now change back your ring and use pots for the forth and the last boss.
